Also, the RSS has no direct control over the content, so just like HTML validation, it's not possible to guarantee that pages or feeds will be valid - there are simply too many ways for sensible content to break the validation, as evidenced by the ? examples in the FrontPage validation output. > It complains about pubdate, a quick look suggests that pubdate is not > part of Item, but part of channel. I might reinstate it in channel then. TBH, the feed scripts could do with a little work as the feed content is a little odd at the moment. They probably need more regexp work and a few tweaks for our particular usage. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
